Herzing University surveyed employers across the country about what they’d like to see as professional attributes in the university’s graduates. Those interview results became the P.R.I.C.E. of Success model, an acronym for Professionalism, Respect, Integrity, Caring, and Engagement. Students explained to Congressman Latta that those lessons learned have not only changed their professional attitudes, but have helped them in their personal lives as well. In sum, they showed the congressman that a solid higher education is more than about learning technical skills; rather, it is as much about becoming well-rounded individuals, too.

Herzing University-Toledo recently celebrated its fifth anniversary as a campus. Herzing University will celebrate its 50th anniversary as a university system in 2015.
